Chapter 56 People Are Greedy

"Yes." Yun Qi said calmly: "Aren't you very concerned about the health of His Highness the Crown Prince? You also suggested that Mr. Miao help take a look. I think your suggestion is very good, so I asked him to take a look."

"Oh...then what do you think after seeing it?"

"A chronic illness." Yun Qi frowned slightly, "Old injuries, coupled with the fact that he has been working too hard."

Xie Zhaozhao nodded, "Even though everything in the world requires His Highness the Crown Prince's care and attention, your health is the most important thing and you need to take good care of it."

The prince is the eldest son of Emperor Xuanwu and Queen Daxing. He is capable of both literary and military skills and has outstanding virtues and abilities.

After the death of Queen Daxing, the prince became the spiritual support of Emperor Xuanwu and the future of the entire Qin Dynasty.

The prince in his previous life suddenly died a year later.

Emperor Xuanwu was extremely sad, and the kings of the vassal towns who protected the territory of Qin were also ready to seize the throne.

The Xie family had a high position and was at the forefront of the storm. Because they were unwilling to accept the vassal king's win over and be resented, this led to the entire family being wiped out.

This was partly because of Chu Nanxuan and also partly because of the sudden death of the prince.

The prince is also Yun Qi's father.

This time, Xie Zhaozhao hopes to change the trajectory of his previous life for the sake of the Xie family, for Yun Qi, and for all the people in the world to be protected from the flames of war.

Yun Qi said "hmm".

Xie Zhaozhao added: "Don't get angry with His Highness the Crown Prince. He just hates you."

Yun Qi stopped his hand and raised his eyes to look at Xie Zhaozhao. He stared at him in silence for a long time. He suddenly smiled and said, "You haven't married me yet, but you have already begun to care about the father-son relationship between me and the prince."

"I'm talking to you seriously." Xie Zhaozhao said seriously, "Don't be so playful!"

"I know." The look in Yun Qi's eyes was dark and unpredictable, and he gently rubbed Xie Zhaozhao's arm with his fingertips, causing a little tingling.

"Okay?" Xie Zhaozhao pulled his arm back, "It's getting late, you-"

"Yes." Yun Qi nodded again, but leaned forward and came close to Xie Zhaozhao.

Behind Xie Zhaozhao is the bedpost, and there is no way to retreat.

Yun Qi stopped in front of her, and his long hair hanging down his shoulders slid down and fell on Xie Zhaozhao's clothes, carrying Yun Qi's unique fragrance.

He stopped half an inch in front of Xie Zhaozhao, neither advancing nor retreating, saying nothing, just looking at her with an unpredictable gaze.

That gaze was sharp but also a little ambiguous.

Xie Zhaozhao held his breath subconsciously, turned his face away slightly, and wanted to raise his hand to block between himself and Yun Qi. His wrist moved but did not lift up, and he said in a stiff voice: "You should go back."

"Okay." Yun Qi responded with a low voice: "You don't have to worry about your internal strength. I won't make you lose your martial arts."

After saying this, without waiting for Xie Zhaozhao's response, he kissed Xie Zhaozhao's forehead and heart very lightly, stood up, and pulled the brocade quilt over Xie Zhaozhao's legs very naturally.

Xie Zhaozhao opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, and could only watch his back disappear from the window.

She touched her forehead and pursed her lips gently. In the lake of her heart, there was a slight ripple, flowing towards the outer circle layer by layer.

……

After Yun Qi left Wangyue Tower, his figure disappeared into the night with a vigorous posture.

When they arrived at the agreed meeting place with Xuan Ming, even if Xuan Ming had known that his master was very skilled and vigilant, it would have been easy for him to enter Dingguo's palace to steal incense and jade.

But seeing that everything was safe with Yun Qi, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He thought that his master was becoming more and more powerful now, and Miss Seventh's martial arts had recovered to a few percent, and he didn't even get beaten when he broke into the boudoir in the middle of the night.

"Go back."

Yun Qi put one hand behind his back and stepped forward, but his face hidden in the night was a little gloomy.

he's changed.

She has changed too.What is the reason for her meekness toward herself, her care for the prince, and her dislike for Chu Nanxuan?

It's probably not because I like myself.

They both knew that something was wrong with each other, but they both understood it tacitly and did not touch it.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with this.

Cooperate with each other and achieve success.

But when Yun Qi looked at the half-curved moon in the sky, he felt that something was missing in his heart, and some unspeakable bitterness spread in his heart.

He murmured: "People are really greedy."

The opportunity he had now was a blessing that no one else could even imagine, but he still wanted her to like her.

He wanted her to be with him because they were in love with each other, not for the sake of the situation.

Xuan Ming couldn't understand Yun Qi's words and was very puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask. He just quickly followed Yun Qi's footsteps and disappeared into the night.

……

Xie Zhaozhao had an uneasy sleep that night. He dreamed about his past life all night long, and the dream was all about Yun Qi at that time.

Arrogant, wanton, unruly.

When it is still, it is like a orchid and a jade tree; when it is moving, it is like the scorching sun.

The most recurring scene in the dream was the scene of him sitting on the bedside last night, kissing her forehead lightly and quickly.

Xie Zhaozhao was sitting on the bedside, his face a little haggard, and he was stroking his forehead with a faint smile on his lips.

"Miss, what good things are you thinking about?" Xianggui came in to help wash up.

"It's nothing." Xie Zhaozhao put down his hand and smiled back, "I'm going to sleep for a while, don't let anyone disturb me."

"Yes."

Xianggui leaned over and bowed, and quickly left with her maid.

Xie Zhaozhao lay back on the bed and caught up on his sleep. It was noon when he got up.

Mrs. Yu came over and talked about her for a while, thinking that she had been running too hard at Mr. Miao's place recently and didn't sleep well at night.

How did Mr. Yu know that Xie Zhaozhao was so disturbed that he couldn't sleep well?

Soon the imperial court issued an imperial edict that half a month before and after Queen Daxing's birthday, a grand water and land ceremony would be held at the Daxiangguo Temple in the suburbs of Beijing.

All the officials and their family members in Beijing must participate, fast, bathe, copy scriptures and pray for blessings.

The birthday of Queen Dahang has always been the most important thing in Beijing, not to mention that this year is the 60th birthday of Queen Dahang. The meaning of the whole life is different, and Emperor Xuanwu attaches more importance to it.

No one dares to overdo it.

Xie Xingchen and Dou naturally gave up their attachment to Chu He and prepared to go to the Buddhist temple in the suburbs of Beijing.

The day of departure was August [-]th, and the weather was no longer so muggy.

Xie Zhaozhao and Mr. Yu shared a carriage, and Xie Xingchen and Mr. Dou shared a carriage.

Because of the accounts and the unclear involvement between Xie Xingchen and Chu Nanxuan, Mrs. Yu now has no good feelings towards the second roommate. When she went out, she met him in front of the door and couldn't even maintain the surface politeness.

Yu's face was cold, as if he didn't see Dou and Xie Xingchen, and he took Xie Zhaozhao directly onto the carriage.

Mrs. Dou originally wanted to pretend to say hello, but was scorned like this and froze for a while before getting into the carriage with Xie Xingchen's support.

As soon as she sat down, Mrs. Dou sneered and said: "The rough refugees are really irregular. It means that the Yu family got lucky and followed Emperor Xuanwu to kill the snake in the early years. Otherwise, she is nothing!"
